Forecasts

Verdict

ROMAN DRAGON left the impression that he would be close to concert pitch next time when fifth at Haydock 3 weeks ago, and this multiple C&D winner is taken to add to his tally here back at 6f and from a favourable draw. The selection may have most to fear from Ventura Express, who arrives here at the top of his game. Cuban Breeze and Hello Zabeel are others to consider, while Faro de San Juan is also worth a second look having edged down to an attractive mark.

  1. ROMAN DRAGON
  2. VENTURA EXPRESS
  3. CUBAN BREEZE
